// ANTHONY STERN - SAN FRANCISCO (1969) //

"Anthony Stern's San Francisco is one of the key works of the British avant-garde cinema of the late-1960's. It is a 15-minute voyage, set to the Pink Floyd's "Interstellar Overdrive," that palpitates through the single-frame, hand-held procedures associated in the American underground cinema with figures such as Marie Menken and Jonas Mekas. Stern, first a painter who started in film as an assitant to Peter Whitehead, articulates light and colour and motion in the spirit of Lázló Moholy-Nagy (or of Harry Callahan's photographs of Detroit in the 40s); he stretches and stops and smears film time, treated here as psychoactive sculptural material"

This is the first compilation of submissions from readers of the blog far and wide. It's a chunky, eclectic mix running through garage surf (Malibooz) to chopped and screwed Kate Bush (Mediafired) to noise field recordings (Kevin Sanders) to shoegaze fuzz (Stagnant Pools) and much, much more.

Import into a new playlist and enjoy after you have copied the link and shared it as much as you can!
